Handbook

The project is an inquiry-based learning course that provides students with an opportunity to bring together and apply engineering principles learned over their previous years of study and professional experience to innovatively solve problems such as the development of a specific design, process and/or the investigation of a hypothesis.

The projects that students undertake are complex, open-ended problems that allow room for creativity, acquisition, analysis, and interpretation of results. There are multiple possible solutions or conclusions at the outset that have sufficient complexity to require a degree of project planning from the students. The project requires students to formulate problems in scientific or engineering terms, manage a technical project and find solutions by applying scientific and engineering methods. It also allows them to develop the ability to work in a research and development environment.

This is the third course in the three-course Master project structure. Subject to making excellent progress in ELEC9451 and with the approval of your supervisor, you may be allowed to enrol in this course at the same time as ELEC9452.
